Cuba Gooding as Doris "Dorie" Miller, made famous for manning the guns during the attack, earning a Navy Cross for his actions. Sadly didn't make it to the end, died Nov. 24, 1943 when his ship, the Escort Carrier Liscome Bay was sunk during the Gilbert Islands Campaign. Has multiple buildings, schools, and community centers named after him, primarily throughout Texas, a Knox-Class Frigate (FF-1091 commissioned 1973-1991) and an upcoming Ford-Class Carrier (CVN-81, scheduled to be launched in 2029)
Thanks for this important tidbit of historical info. I knew about his heroics decades ago but never knew what had happened to him. Thanks so much. Much appreciated.
The day they woke up the sleeping giant, the Americans can be whatever they want, but I have never seen a country so patriotic and united in difficult times, there is no one like them when it comes to fighting a war, they unite and become an unstoppable force.
Although Doris Mille suffered unfair treatment and was unable to participate in shooting training, his anger turned into courage in the face of fallen comrades and rampant enemies.
U almost have to scream and lose it shooting that incredible gun OMG I love the look he gives it when he stands up..Can't imagine the Adrenaline..THANK U HEROES 💪 🇺🇸
You also got to remember, the real guy was never taught how to use firearms, let alone an anti aircraft machine gun. And he was credited to downing 3 japs that morning.
He's so clearly aiming above the ship, the thought that he just begins to mercilessly broadside what looks like a supply ship with .50cal ammunition is beyond stupid.
I think what it was to show that he didn't know or was trained on how to fire that weapon back then because of discrimination against black people and for him to still have courage to fire and take down an airplane was to show his bravery, heart, and courage to stand up and fight.
A shame Michael Bay's work turned to shit in later years. Here you actually got to see all the parts of the explosions. It was a great movie. Horrible, great, history.
Honestly. Michael Bays Pearl Harbour scene is filled with massive Flaws. So huge you could sail the entire US Navy through them. Pearl Harbour by Michael Bay is a love story first and a history movie second. The emphasis given to the romance scenes because this guy likes this girl detracts from the Story they are trying to tell. Compare that to the scenes from Midway in the aftermath of the attack where there is so breif that you almost miss it moments of romance between characters to establish that the characters are married or dating, have kids. It highlights the human reaction of being glad you're loved ones are okay and then immediately replaces that with the anger towards the Japanese for the lives lost. It enhances the story because immediately after, the Enterprise sets sail to war. The focus in Midway is the history being told, they even went so far as to include the actions of Bruno Gaido which so many people said that had to be fake when in actuality what happens in the Movie Midway is pretty spot on with very few exceptions. Pearl Harbour on the other hand has huge inaccuracies. The Black guy who man's the guns I forget his name, regardless of his skin colour, he'd have a basic idea of how to use them as at sea in combat, every man has a role to fill, and that is defending the ship. Even if he is just a cook. And in this case a black cook, the US Navy will have trained him in the operation of defensive weaponry, AA Batteries in this case, the execution of Damage Control to contain Fire and Flooding, basic medicine to assist medical personnel, and how to cook. Contrary to what others may think. Edit: also there is a scene in pearl harbour where the Japs are coming in, and they fly past the boyscouts of America and a little league team, and the tail gunner in the Japanese plane is yelling and shouting at the boys to run... Point blank... No. Purely designed to tug on the heartstrings of the viewer while distorting history itself. Many Japanese despised America, and through out the war, the Japanese committed grave atrocities against prisoners of war and civilianss in the territories they occupied. Including Rape. And i mean institutionalised Rape. The Japanese Airmen would have had the same indoctrinated hatred of non Japanese as the Army as evident by the actions at Sea as well as on Land in regards to captured Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen.
I made thanksgiving dinner for my old boss and his mother a few years ago and she nonchalantly tells the story of her uncle and father putting a 50 cal gun in the back of a car and shooting at the planes at pearl harbor and then getting in planes and shooting down like 7 or 17 (i forget) japanese planes and one of them becoming the first double ace pilot or something like that and I asked her if she had ever seen this movie and she said no and my jaw hit the floor. She just passed away. RIP Bunny. Bunny gave me her real Hawaiian clothes before she died because she knew I loved to wear vintage clothing and the historical significance of her childhood as a navy brat really makes these clothes so sentimental to me.
I have surround sound and when I got this movie I cranked up the volume and it literally felt like i was in the middle of the action because of all the effects it felt like explosions was going off behind me and planes flying past me this is a good movie to watch in surround sound
Let’s hear it for the character played by Cuba Gooding Junior, who had the guns trained on this Japanese fighter plane coming to add him because I remember watching that movie twice back in theaters, which showed that character using a 50 caliber gun trained onto this Japanese fighter plane destroying it completely and he was like shouting because he did the job.
Grunts, especially douchbag ones, know what a pog is. That badass cook getting down with the double .50 cal machine guns, that's when a pog becomes a GRUNT. Buncha grunts will never ever get the chance to call upon Valhalla like that. RIP and God speed all our troopers past, present, future. 🙏 ❤🤍💙
Muchas gracias por compartir tan buena escena de una gran película 😊. El gran Cuba Gooding Jr interpretando al valiente marinero y cocinero, enfrentandose a los aviones japoneses. 😊❤❤😊.
My dad was in the Air Force in 2956-1960. He was stationed in Yokohama, I think, and someone asked him if he felt bad about the atomic bomb. Pop said "hell no! I'd drop it again."
In terms of historical accuracy the film is virtually a Boys Own fanfic of the event, but from a technical standpoint, the sound, camerawork, stunts, costumes etc, its dazzling.
If it makes you feel better the attack on the hospital didn't happen in real life. It's an entirely fictional addition to the story. Just one of many historical inaccuracies in the movie.
A reason I watch this film is that my great uncle (older brother of my paternal grandfather) was wounded at Pearl Harbor- Electrician's Mate William Reddit Prevost. I was not named after him but after my dad's younger brother. Uncle Red was on the USS Honolulu. The irony later was that NY paternal grandfather was already in the Army and also sent to the Pacific front.
@@p1xelplayer1 back in the day, they called WW1 the Great War or the War to End All Wars. Then WW2 happened. I’m not sure what they called that one at the time.
Now the most powerful Ford Class nuclear aircraft carrier in the US Navy will get Doris Miller's name. Thats how your actions will resound into eternity. Now if they could do exactly the same to Bruno Gaido, the hero of the Marshall Islands campaing in 1942 who saved the aircaft carrier USS Enterprise from a suicide attack bringing down a japanese bomber with his machine gun which missed the deck of the ship by inches, it will be awesome on the part of the Navy to also elevate his name for posterity. Another deserving true hero who's name will be worthy to be carry out by another US Navy nuclear aircraft carrier.
Nah it'd be better if a new fighter plane was named after him for example the f-42 gaido or something like that, also a hospital named after Desmond doss would be very honorable to him
@@obiwankenobi5769 no that’s dumb. Fighter planes have always been named after animals, generally predatory avian. Naval ships are named after people, particularly destroyers.
It was hard to hit a plane with one of those lol The Japanese were able to destroy 2 British battleships at full strength while they only lost 6 planes because it’s extremely hard to land a hit. The US later came up with a strategy of using groups of these guns in different firing lanes with multiple ships to increase the chances of hitting them
@@DomWeasel In all that confusion during the totally unexpected surprise attack, on a Sunday no less, it's really no shock that a cook untrained on the weapon would not be looking at anything other than his target. Even with the threat of friendly fire -- assuming anyone was left alive on deck on the ship next to him -- it was more important to have anyone who could, firing any gun they could get their hands on. If he managed to shoot down even one plane, it was worth the risk to the higher-ups. Not like the AA gun was any threat to anything other than personnel still on deck -- it had zero chance of penetrating even the superstructure armor of a battleship.
The most tragic part of this whole attack were the men trapped in the Oklahoma when she capsized. A sizeable portion of her crew were trapped below deck while manning their battle stations and subsequently drowned when she rolled over. Many of them did so only after their compartments slowly filled with water in complete darkness after the ship's power had failed.
Doris Miller was a mess attendant on board the USS West Virginia. At the time the US military was heavily segregated. Black personnel could only take on menial jobs like cooks and laundry. When the Pearl Harbor attack was underway, the West Virginia's skipper, Captain Mervyn S. Bennion, was evicerated by shrapnel. Instead of being taken to the infirmary, Bennion ordered he be moved to the navigational bridge to direct the battle. Holding his wound closed with one hand, he continued to give orders, and listened to status reports from other officers before he died of blood loss. Miller was a big man, a former high school fullback. Miller carried the skipper to the navigational bridge. When the skipper died, Miller was directed to help man two of the .50 caliber machine guns behind the coning tower. Being a cook, Miller had no training on the weapon. The officers quickly showed him how the weapon worked with the intention being Miller help feed ammunition to the guns while someone else fired it. The officer then became distracted by something else. When he returned, he found Miller firing one of the machine guns! The man kept firing until he ran out of ammunition. During this Miller remarked, "I think I got him!" pointing at one smoking Japanese plane. It's not possible to confirm if it was Miller's rounds that hit, as thousands of rounds were flying at the same time, but Miller's intent was clear. After the battle he was nominated for the Medal of Honor, but was refused because he was black. Instead he became the first black sailor to receive the second highest medal for bravery, the Navy Cross. Instead of giving him a worthy position in the Navy, Miller was kept as a cook and posted on board the escort carrier Liscome Bay (CVE-56). In November 1943, the carrier was sunk by a Japanese submarine, taking most of her crew, including Miller, with her to the bottom.
لقد ارتكب اليابانيون خطأً فادحا عندما هجموا على قاعدة pearl harbor في المحيط الهادي .لقد لقّنهم الأمريكان درسا قاسيا بعد هذه الحادثة. اليابان كانت تضنّ أنّها تستطيع اللعب مع أمريكا وهي أقوى دولة .
He is a MANUFACTURED hero, a myth created by the black media. His medal was not given to him for EIGHT MONTHS and it was only given to appease black organizations that started a massive campaign to have him given a medal. The myth that he shot down several Japanese planes is EXACTLY that a myth with no evidence to support it. His exploits at Pearl Harbor are grossly over inflated because the black media wanted a hero so they invented one.
As an old US Navy veteran who had an uncle shot down by the Japanese, this movie stirs deep resentment for the Japanese government and military. To this day I detest what they did to American sailors on December 7, 1941 and I will never forgive them or our incompetent leaders of the time for the cowardly atrocity they committed..
You say this after effectively provoking Japan by blocking their oil shipments. The Americans nuked civilian population which was much worse than bombing a military base
Visited the memorial our guide told of the story of 2 brave young men who were best friends since childhood who joined the navy at 15 and 16. they died on the USS Arizona ages 16 and 17. It’s a very somber experience but necessary and worth it.
Coming from an island country in the Pacific, my grandfather rooted for the Japanese in WW2 during their conquest of the south pacific. He even helped build their tunnels and move their equipment. He said the Japanese soldiers were very respectful and kind even if they never understood our language. After the US bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki my gramps mourned with his foreign friends because of their loss and that they had to return home. Probably only clips like this, but in my life I have never sat down to watch Hollywood films of WW2 in the Pacific because they never portray Japanese side of the war properly and due to my grampa side of the story. They are mostly conceived as the bad guys. I figured that in a war, no side is a bad side. It's just the greed and stupidity of respective leaders.
Sounds like your grandfather was one of the very few to have such a relationship. The Japanese Imperial forces were known for exercising brutality to their enemies since they considered them less then human. Their conquests through China were especially bloody, and campaigns on Wake Island, Midway, and Guadalcanal showed they were fanatic.
At that time, all of Southeast Asia, India, and the Middle East were colonies of Western whites, and white countries monopolized resources around the world. They, the United States and the United Kingdom, blocked the economy of Japan and stopped supplying oil and iron ore. It was the same as telling Japan to die. Therefore, Japan declared war on the United States and Britain for self-defense, and attacked the military facilities of Pearl Harbor Singapol and the white country of the Philippines. Not only Pearl Harbor but also the Male Peninsula landing operation and Fripin capture were carried out at the same time. And Japan kicked out the white nation that was invading Southeast Asia.
@@森田和義-k6u Japan's declaring war on the US, which by the way came by ultimatum after the attack on Pearl Harbor, was no means self-defense. Japan was waging an aggressive campaign against China, destroying its cities and slaughtering its people. There were only small Western establishments in Asia, like in Hong Kong, and there certainly weren't enough power in them to dictate where resources went. Point is that Japan was whipped into nationalist fervor like Germany, and saw an opportunity to expand their empire and influence. It cost the country dearly.
@@douglaslorin739 What did America do? America is no exception. The United States, which won the Spanish-American War, launched a war in the Philippines and sent 80,000 army troops to conquer the entire area. Also, in 1906, during the rebellion of Islamic residents against the American land system, the U.S. military surrounded their fort and killed all 600 people, including fighters and girls and children. .. The number of civilian casualties on the Philippine side by the U.S. military is said to be 200,000 to 1.5 million.

Now if they could do exactly the same to Bruno Gaido, the hero of the Marshall Islands campaing in 1942 who saved the aircaft carrier USS Enterprise from a suicide attack bringing down a japanese bomber with his machine gun which missed the deck of the ship by inches, it will be awesome on the part of the Navy to also elevate his name for posterity. Another deserving true hero who's name will be worthy to be carry out by another US Navy nuclear aircraft carrier.
Nah it'd be better if a new fighter plane was named after him for example the f-42 gaido or something like that, also a hospital named after Desmond doss would be very honorable to him
@@obiwankenobi5769 no that’s dumb. Fighter planes have always been named after animals, generally predatory avian. Naval ships are named after people, particularly destroyers.
I call it the USS Woke, to name it after Miller is just a publicity stunt so the Navy can show how woke they are.
Any movie with Ben Afleck or Josh Hartnett is doomed to fail.
Guess you're living in the past
"Get some B!tch!!" Cuba was great in this movie
How fast 23 goes by for this film
"Great Kid But don't get cocky !" - Han solo
Although I really love this scene, I can't help but wonder how much ammo he went through before he brought down that plane
I'm more concerned that he was firing while his gun was pointed at the neighbouring warship...
@@DomWeasel NO JOKE 👍
It was hard to hit a plane with one of those lol
The Japanese were able to destroy 2 British battleships at full strength while they only lost 6 planes because it’s extremely hard to land a hit.
The US later came up with a strategy of using groups of these guns in different firing lanes with multiple ships to increase the chances of hitting them
@@DomWeasel In all that confusion during the totally unexpected surprise attack, on a Sunday no less, it's really no shock that a cook untrained on the weapon would not be looking at anything other than his target. Even with the threat of friendly fire -- assuming anyone was left alive on deck on the ship next to him -- it was more important to have anyone who could, firing any gun they could get their hands on. If he managed to shoot down even one plane, it was worth the risk to the higher-ups. Not like the AA gun was any threat to anything other than personnel still on deck -- it had zero chance of penetrating even the superstructure armor of a battleship.
Then 9-year-old me totally thought he made that poor knox class frigate explode.
The most tragic part of this whole attack were the men trapped in the Oklahoma when she capsized. A sizeable portion of her crew were trapped below deck while manning their battle stations and subsequently drowned when she rolled over. Many of them did so only after their compartments slowly filled with water in complete darkness after the ship's power had failed.
0:30 I used to scream like that while I play COD world at war in Japan mission campaign
0:33 ohhhhh now that gonna leave a mark
Belle
I cant imagine the friendly fire he inflicted.
Why didn't we get a movie about this Chad. Instead of weird accent Ben Affleck.
"I think WW2 just started."
Ah yes, Americans being taken completely by surprise two years into the global war they think has only just started now.
It wasn’t called WW2 commonly around the world until America joined in. Until then it was known simply as the “the war in Europe”.
best video ive ever seen
I think it’s amazing that they kept the windows at Hickman Field. Go there and see the bullet holes
1:50 why is boxing hiding under the table?
He wanted to take a nap.
When I was in the navy boot camp. They had us watch this attack scene. Honestly most of us got angry watching it.
🇺🇲 : I see who you are you are ma enemy ma enemy you are ma enemy I see who you are you are ma enemy ma enemy you are ma enemy 🇯🇵.
Tora tora tora is more historically accurate then this Michael Bay fantasy
2:03 i think world war 2 just started
those british people in 1939: guys the next world war has begun
2:24 Billy, RUUUUN
Doris Miller was a mess attendant on board the USS West Virginia. At the time the US military was heavily segregated. Black personnel could only take on menial jobs like cooks and laundry. When the Pearl Harbor attack was underway, the West Virginia's skipper, Captain Mervyn S. Bennion, was evicerated by shrapnel. Instead of being taken to the infirmary, Bennion ordered he be moved to the navigational bridge to direct the battle. Holding his wound closed with one hand, he continued to give orders, and listened to status reports from other officers before he died of blood loss. Miller was a big man, a former high school fullback. Miller carried the skipper to the navigational bridge.
When the skipper died, Miller was directed to help man two of the .50 caliber machine guns behind the coning tower. Being a cook, Miller had no training on the weapon. The officers quickly showed him how the weapon worked with the intention being Miller help feed ammunition to the guns while someone else fired it. The officer then became distracted by something else. When he returned, he found Miller firing one of the machine guns! The man kept firing until he ran out of ammunition. During this Miller remarked, "I think I got him!" pointing at one smoking Japanese plane. It's not possible to confirm if it was Miller's rounds that hit, as thousands of rounds were flying at the same time, but Miller's intent was clear.
After the battle he was nominated for the Medal of Honor, but was refused because he was black. Instead he became the first black sailor to receive the second highest medal for bravery, the Navy Cross. Instead of giving him a worthy position in the Navy, Miller was kept as a cook and posted on board the escort carrier Liscome Bay (CVE-56). In November 1943, the carrier was sunk by a Japanese submarine, taking most of her crew, including Miller, with her to the bottom.
Well, that showed the racist attitude of the self professed god father of the free world
لقد ارتكب اليابانيون خطأً فادحا عندما هجموا على قاعدة pearl harbor في المحيط الهادي .لقد لقّنهم الأمريكان درسا قاسيا بعد هذه الحادثة. اليابان كانت تضنّ أنّها تستطيع اللعب مع أمريكا وهي أقوى دولة .
Nice one! its a joy to see this. Unfortunately that it wasnt california though.
Doris Miller was a great man and great Soldier on Pearl Harbor
He is a MANUFACTURED hero, a myth created by the black media. His medal was not given to him for EIGHT MONTHS and it was only given to appease black organizations that started a massive campaign to have him given a medal. The myth that he shot down several Japanese planes is EXACTLY that a myth with no evidence to support it. His exploits at Pearl Harbor are grossly over inflated because the black media wanted a hero so they invented one.
2:08 Did I Just see Gordon Ramsay on a machine gun?
As an old US Navy veteran who had an uncle shot down by the Japanese, this movie stirs deep resentment for the Japanese government and military. To this day I detest what they did to American sailors on December 7, 1941 and I will never forgive them or our incompetent leaders of the time for the cowardly atrocity they committed..
You say this after effectively provoking Japan by blocking their oil shipments. The Americans nuked civilian population which was much worse than bombing a military base
Japanese pilots of Zero never gave bomb to hospitals btw this movie is good as entertainment.
Also 🇯🇵 : miss oil ⚪️⚪️⚪️, and aircraft carriers, and I think sub bases or da repair places to get da ships get back up.
Visited the memorial our guide told of the story of 2 brave young men who were best friends since childhood who joined the navy at 15 and 16. they died on the USS Arizona ages 16 and 17. It’s a very somber experience but necessary and worth it.
0:38 When you finally kill that pesky mosquito flying around your room the whole night
Best movie !
Coming from an island country in the Pacific, my grandfather rooted for the Japanese in WW2 during their conquest of the south pacific. He even helped build their tunnels and move their equipment. He said the Japanese soldiers were very respectful and kind even if they never understood our language. After the US bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki my gramps mourned with his foreign friends because of their loss and that they had to return home. Probably only clips like this, but in my life I have never sat down to watch Hollywood films of WW2 in the Pacific because they never portray Japanese side of the war properly and due to my grampa side of the story. They are mostly conceived as the bad guys. I figured that in a war, no side is a bad side. It's just the greed and stupidity of respective leaders.
Sounds like your grandfather was one of the very few to have such a relationship. The Japanese Imperial forces were known for exercising brutality to their enemies since they considered them less then human. Their conquests through China were especially bloody, and campaigns on Wake Island, Midway, and Guadalcanal showed they were fanatic.
At that time, all of Southeast Asia, India, and the Middle East were colonies of Western whites, and white countries monopolized resources around the world. They, the United States and the United Kingdom, blocked the economy of Japan and stopped supplying oil and iron ore. It was the same as telling Japan to die. Therefore, Japan declared war on the United States and Britain for self-defense, and attacked the military facilities of Pearl Harbor Singapol and the white country of the Philippines. Not only Pearl Harbor but also the Male Peninsula landing operation and Fripin capture were carried out at the same time. And Japan kicked out the white nation that was invading Southeast Asia.
@@森田和義-k6u Japan's declaring war on the US, which by the way came by ultimatum after the attack on Pearl Harbor, was no means self-defense. Japan was waging an aggressive campaign against China, destroying its cities and slaughtering its people.
There were only small Western establishments in Asia, like in Hong Kong, and there certainly weren't enough power in them to dictate where resources went. Point is that Japan was whipped into nationalist fervor like Germany, and saw an opportunity to expand their empire and influence. It cost the country dearly.
@@douglaslorin739 What did America do? America is no exception. The United States, which won the Spanish-American War, launched a war in the Philippines and sent 80,000 army troops to conquer the entire area. Also, in 1906, during the rebellion of Islamic residents against the American land system, the U.S. military surrounded their fort and killed all 600 people, including fighters and girls and children. ..
The number of civilian casualties on the Philippine side by the U.S. military is said to be 200,000 to 1.5 million.
@@douglaslorin739 Britain and the United States also wage war on Asia, and then colonized and exploited it. There is no justice there. Britain exploited Indians and Southeast Asians, and the United States was no exception and wage war on the Philippines, as I wrote earlier
The one line that pissed me off the most in this entire friggin movie was when the sailor in the navy said:
"I can't swim!"
Most us sailors in ww2 could not swim
Coming from landlocked countries, u really dont have the opportunity to learn how to swim and they dont necessarily have to teach you.
@@laughingsnake1989That is the singular most idiotic thing I've ever heard. Why would someone who volunteers to serve on a boat, in the middle of the friggin ocean, not know how to swim!
@@Temujin1991because THEY'RE ON A BOAT. There's a 99% chance they'll never need to swim
@@briansview2886well that 1% chance is enough of a chance to justify it. Cause if their ship sinks during combat they are fucked.
You prepare for the worst in the military. Regardless of whether or not you are at war or peace.
Just beautiful
Hate to say this, but no ship in 1941 had 20mm cannons.
I couldn’t imagine how or what being anyone there that day
二度と起こしてはならない争いです
